 | F2P thing like //Pokémon Picross//, but maybe a little bit less shit? The only hassle so far is having to wait on a timer to unlock new areas, but that doesn't actually bother me. There are normal stages, then there are ones called 'quests' where you fight monsters with characters you've unlocked by quickly solving simply puzzles. The order you solve lines dictates the order the characters attack in, which effects which abilities are used. You also build meter which lets you use spells and things. Kinda fun!\\ [[https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-pictlogica-final-fantasy-eng-translation.551514/|Translation patch available]], but I highly recommend patches the ROM if you're playing on a 3DS rather than relying on real-time patching, as that brings some real tedious and frequent load times. || | F2P thing like //Pokémon Picross//, but maybe a little bit less shit?
